Attorney-General's Office: Winter Supplementary Estimates

Lord Wallace of Tankerness: My right honourable friend the Attorney-General has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	Subject to parliamentary approval of any necessary supplementary estimate, the Attorney-General's total DEL will be increased by £10,977,000 from £686,875,000 to £697,852,000. Within the total DEL change, the impact on resources and capital are set out in the following table:
	
		
			 (£,000) Change New DEL 
			  Voted Non-voted Voted Non-voted Total 
			 Resource DEL 10,977 - 659,077 36,182 695,259

	† Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets.
	†† Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from total DEL since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting.
	The Crown Prosecution Service's (CPS) element of the Attorney General's total DEL will be increased by £8,185,000 from £633,242,000 to £641,427,000.
	The change in Resource DEL arises from budgetary transfers totalling £8,185,000 from the Ministry of Justice consisting of:
	£4,300,000 to help fund the Compass Case Management System
	£2,600,000 from Victim Surcharge collections
	£785,000 to provide support for the Local Criminal Justice Boards

Cabinet Office: Directgov Review

Lord Taylor of Holbeach: My right honourable friend the Minister for the Cabinet Office (Francis Maude) has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	I invited Martha Lane Fox, the Government's Digital Champion, to undertake a strategic review of Directgov which was completed on 14 October 2010. This supported the work that the Efficiency and Reform Board had undertaken on Channel Shift and the opportunity for digital channels to support delivery of the Spending Review. The Chief Secretary to the Treasury and I wrote to departments in September outlining our commitment to improving services and driving efficiencies by making digital the default channel for government information and transactional services.
	Martha Lane Fox submitted her report Directgov 2010 and beyond: revolution not evolution, to me in October. The report places Directgov in the context of how Government should use the internet both to communicate and interact better with citizens and to deliver significant efficiency savings from making digital the default delivery channel for government information and services.
	I have written to Martha Lane Fox today thanking her for her report and saying that I am minded to accept her proposals in full, but that I will need to consult with colleagues before making any final decisions about how to take them forward. I have placed Martha Lane Fox's report and my response in the Library. Both documents are also available on the Cabinet Office website (www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk).
	I expect quick and broad agreement on some of Martha Lane Fox's proposals where we can make rapid progress and that in some areas, such as moving to a single domain for government, I will have to work with departments to test different approaches and work through the details and timescales. It is important to set a clear direction of travel and that is what I have done in my reply as the initial government response to Martha Lane Fox's proposals.

Crime: Serious Further Offence

Lord McNally: My right honourable friend the Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice (Kenneth Clarke) has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	Following the recall to custody and subsequent conviction of Jon Venables for the possession of indecent images of children, I commissioned Sir David Omand GCB to undertake an independent review of the post-release period of the case, covering Jon Venables' supervision from release on life licence in June 2001 until 24 February 2010, when he was recalled to custody.
	The review has encompassed the general principles of a serious further offence (SFO) review but has also considered the wider lessons to be learnt for the future management of this and similar cases.
	The terms of reference of the review were:
	to review the supervision of the subject, from his release on life licence until his recall to custody, in order to establish whether he was effectively supervised, having regard to national standards and guidance and to the particular circumstances/challenges of his case;in doing so, to consider the actions of his offender managers, their supervisors, the local police, the local MAPPA meetings and the role of the National Management Board; andto establish whether everything was done which might reasonably have been expected of all agencies involved in supervising the subject to monitor his compliance with his licence conditions and to assess and manage any risk of harm which he presented.
	Sir David Omand has completed the review and submitted his report to me.
	I have placed in the Libraries of both Houses a copy of his report, which has been redacted in a few places to comply with the terms of the injunction amended in the High Court on 23 July 2010 (commonly known as the Butler-Sloss injunction), to take account of data protection and other confidentiality laws and to protect very sensitive operational policing information.
	Sir David has concluded that Jon Venables was effectively and properly supervised at an appropriate level and frequency of contact, having regard to the particular circumstances of his case. Sir David also concludes that no reasonable supervisory regime would have been expected to detect his use of the computer to download indecent images.
	I have accepted the review's recommendations, which will be taken forward by officials in the National Offender Management Service. Officials will provide me with an update on the implementation of the recommendations in due course.

Disabled People: Work Capability Assessments

Lord Freud: My right honourable friend the Minister for Employment (Chris Grayling) has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	The Government are pleased to announce the publication of Professor Malcolm Harrington's Independent Review of the Work Capability Assessment (WCA). This is a substantial and thorough review of the WCA which the Government fully endorses. Alongside the review, the Government are publishing their response which sets out how we will implement the review's recommendations.
	A central part of the Government's plans to reform the welfare state involves action to tackle incapacity benefit dependency. More than 2.2 million people in Britain today are on incapacity benefits and many have been abandoned, with little or no contact from the welfare state for as long as a decade or more.
	Through the WCA we seek to change this, and to try to find a better way forward for those people. From April 2011 we will put 1.6 million people, all of those on incapacity benefits who are not close to retirement, through an independent medical assessment, the WCA. Those found fit for work or with the potential to return to work will be given support to help them do so; those who are deemed unable to work will continue to receive full support.
	We believe that the principles of the WCA are right but we are clear that the process of assessment must be fair and honest about people's potential. We do not wish to see people who are genuinely unable to work put in a position where they are expected to do so.
	Professor Harrington's review sets out how we can refine the system and significantly improve the process so that it continues to be fit for purpose. We intend to implement these changes as quickly as possible. Many will be put in place in time for the first assessments from the national migration in April 2011.
	We will continue to review the WCA and to make further changes where necessary. We have invited Professor Harrington to continue in his current role as independent reviewer for another year and to make further recommendations to us as appropriate.
	Copies of both documents are available in the Vote Office.

	Subject to parliamentary approval of the Winter Supplementary Estimate, HM Treasury's Resource DEL will be decreased by £20,657,000 from £206,740,000 to £186,083,000. The Administration Budget will be decreased by £21,957,000 from £159,551,000 to £137,594,000. The impact on resources, including the administration budget, is set out in the following table:
	
		
			 (£,000) Change New DEL 
			  Voted Non- voted Voted Non-voted Total 
			 Resource -20,657 - 152,359 33,724 186,083 
			 of which:  
			 Administration budget -21,957 - 126,485 11,109 137,594 
			 Capital* - - 45,300 3,400 48,700 
			 Less Depreciation** - - -6,725 - -6,725 
			 Total -20,657 - 190,934 37,124 228,058 
		
	
	* Capital DEL includes items treated as Resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets.
	** Depreciation, which forms part of Resource DEL, is excluded from Total DEL since Capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting.
	The net reductions in resource DEL of £20,657,000 and Administration Budget of £21,957,000 are the net effect of the transfer of responsibility for the Office of Government Commerce to the Cabinet Office following the Machinery of Government transfer announced on 15 June 2010.

Older People: Active at 60 Community Agents

Lord Freud: My honourable friend the Minister for Pensions (Steve Webb) has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	Today, I am pleased to announce that the Government are providing £1 million to help older people keep active and make the most of their later lives. This money is available for local community groups or organisations within 30 selected areas1 to bid for small grants of between £250-£3,000.
	Each local community group within the selected areas will recruit at least one Active at 60 Community Agent who will volunteer their time to help motivate, encourage and organise people within their own communities to become more active, physically, socially and mentally. Active at 60 Community Agents will be from the communities they are helping, and will have the flexibility to design innovative ways of encouraging and inspiring activity to help improve people's later lives.
	Through the Active at 60 Community Agent initiative those people who are more at risk of social isolation in their later lives will be supported in becoming more active, independent and positively engaged with society. Active at 60 Community Agents will help people within their communities to:
	take the first step in trying something new;understand the benefits they can get from being more active, engaged and contributing to their communities; andbuild social contacts to help make being active part of their routine.
	This project is part of the Government's ambition to build a Big Society in which power is transferred from Whitehall to local communities, and organisations and voluntary groups play a far greater role in their community.
	1 The following areas have been selected on the basis of level of deprivation and age structure, whilst ensuring a broad split across the English regions, encompassing both rural and urban areas:
	Liverpool, Middlesbrough, Hackney, Sandwell, Kingston Upon Hull, Nottingham, Bournemouth, Southend-on-Sea, Brighton and Hove, Redcar and Cleveland, Wirral, Doncaster, Cornwall and The Isles of Scilly, East Sussex, Norfolk, Herefordshire, County of, Lincolnshire, Enfield, Knowsley, Blackpool, Manchester, Stoke-on-Trent, Birmingham, Salford, Hartlepool, Tower Hamlets, Wolverhampton, South Tyneside, Rochdale, Sunderland

Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL]

Lord Sassoon: My honourable friend the Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury (David Gauke) has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	On 15 November the Financial Secretary to the Treasury reported to Parliament on the operation of the UK's counter-terrorist asset-freezing regime for the period July to September 2010.
	During the Second Reading of the Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill, I responded to the honourable Member for Leicester East about figures published in the report. My response appears at Official Report, 15 November 2010, col. 708.
	The explanation I gave of the figures was incorrect. For the purpose of transparency and to ensure the report is correctly interpreted in the future I would like to clarify that explanation.
	As of 30 September 2010, a total of 205 accounts containing just under £290,000 of suspected terrorist funds were frozen in the UK.
	Of that £290,000, approximately £140,000 was frozen under the UK's domestic terrorist asset-freezing regime, which is mandated by UNSCR 1373 and implemented by the legislation that the Bill is intended to replace. The remaining £150,000 was frozen under the UN al-Qaeda and Taliban asset-freezing regime.
